So ya I found the one token and some places a little worn out. And completing the name was about impossible. The answer to fixing this ---- finding another same token 80ft away that is worn in other places -- Now we can see it was FLO & JIMS BARTHOLOMEW RESTAURANT HARTFORD. What are the odds, lol.,

Now get out there and find the third! Very nice. I myself found 2 of the same trade tokens in the same yard from a house. It's actually my member logo. Way to go!

Odds are there may be more of that token on that property. I have only been detecting for 13 months. Found 23 shell tokens/game pieces in a yard. 6 F.O.E. coins/tokens in another and 3 Lifetime of Luck tokens/coins from 1955 in another yard. Congrats on pulling the 2 of the same tokens on 1 property.:thumbsup:

Those Trade tokens and the good fors are really neat finds The aluminum ones tend to take a beating sometimes. Great dig there. The five cent good for almost anything were popular ways to get people into your store or bar.
